Our #ThrowbackThursday pick comes from the Jaguar Land Rover Peoria Blog!
Jaguar Land Rover Peoria is feeling a little groovy today
and throwing it back to one of the most iconic sports cars of the 1960s. Jaguar
unveiled the E-type in March 1961, and it was like nothing else on the road.
At the time, the all-new sports car was billed as one of the
most quiet and flexible cars on the market. The E-type featured a revolutionary
body that was not wind tunnel tested but created using complex mathematical
formulas. This top of the line sports car could also hit the magic 150 mph,
making the Jaguar E-Type a new kind of sports car. Not only was this Jaguar
fast and classy looking but also it was one of the best-priced sports cars on
the market.
Jaguar has recently announced that they would be making six
new E-Type cars. These special Jaguars will be lighter than the originals. The
new E-Type will drop 205 pounds, with help from its aluminum body. Though there
will only be six made, we cannot wait to see what this new classic can do.
Every day, our Jaguar Land Rover Peoria team stands in awe
of the beauty and power behind each Jaguar at our dealership. Come visit our
luxury car dealership in Peoria to experience the power, luxury and performance
of a Jaguar. You won’t regret it.
